About 16 Horton Street

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

16 Horton Street is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in West Bromwich (B70 7SG). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
